Listen, I am going to be totally honest. I am new to this whole Nintendo thing. I grew up in a PlayStation household, playing the Harry Potter games, a bit of Skyrim, and just about every mid-2000s kid's movie video game adaptation (does anyone remember Shrek 2 for PS2)? Up until recently, my experience with Nintendo was limited to slumber parties and dorm room Smash tournaments in college. Do not be fooled by this listicle's title; I never placed anywhere near first in Mario Kart, and I was always promptly KO'd off the platform every time I tried my hand at Smash Brothers. However, I always had a blast.

Finally, after years of enviously side-eyeing my friends with their DSs and Game Boys, I have finally come into possession of a Nintendo Switch! I have spent several hours every evening playing Animal Crossing, DIYing furniture, accumulating Nook Miles, and catching all sorts of critters on my island. I already have my sights set on acquiring a Pikmin game and can't wait to relive my childhood by getting absolutely destroyed in Mario Kart. Whether you've been a Nintendo girlie since the NES came out or you are new to the bandwagon, enjoy this collection of memes!
